Lamb of God Debut Crushingly Heavy New Song “Ghost Shaped People”

OH SHIT! Here’s a nice surprise we didn’t see coming: Lamb of God have released a new song, “Ghost Shaped People.”

That title makes me laugh for some reason. But the song? The song ain’t gonna make anybody laugh. It will rip a lotta people new assholes, for sure, but no one’s gonna be laughing. The last minute of the song, which is basically an extended breakdown, is especially punishing.

If you’re a Lamb of God fan, this is kind of song you’re here for. Crank that shit below.

The track has been released to herald a deluxe edition of the band’s self-titled album, which was first released this past summer. “Ghost Shaped People” will be one of two bonus tracks included on the new iteration of the album, along with a live CD and DVD of their live stream events from this past September, during which the band performed the entire record, along with a smattering of oldies-but-goodies, and “The Death of Us,” their contribution to the Bill & Ted Face the Music soundtrack. The DVD “includes a new director’s cut with bonus material,” according to a press release.

Says guitarist Willie Adler of the re-release:

“This album, and in particular, this deluxe edition is something I’m incredibly proud of. Throughout the process of writing, recording, and the subsequent filming of the live stream, I knew we were creating much more than a collection of songs. Much more than a simple streamed performance. This was focused energy. Energy that, to me, is very tangible. And now, more than ever, in an era where human interaction is so limited, art…..be it music, visual, or otherwise, is a human connection point. And we need as much of that as possible! I hope everyone enjoys this deluxe edition as much as we enjoyed creating it. Thank you.”
